When
you are injured, the approach that Dr. Havsy takes
is a simple plan individually designed to treat your
pain. But the underlying concepts are similar among
patients in general.

The
most important consideration is to diagnose your
medical problem as correctly as possible. Though a
detailed medical history can help diagnose close to
80% of a patient’s pain problems, often times,
diagnostic tests such as nerves studies, blood
tests, X-rays, MRI’s or CT Scans are often necessary
to aid in your diagnosis.

In
complex pain patients or in those individuals where
the response to conservative, non-surgical treatment

consultations with an appropriate specialist may be
indicated.

An Overview

Medical treatment is a broad term that encompasses
non-invasive non-surgical treatment through invasive
surgery and post operative pain control in those
individuals where surgery fails.

Since medicine is not an exact science, and
individualized physician training and experience
varies greatly, often times your diagnoses will vary
greatly among doctors as will the type of medical
treatment recommended.
